Spanish Description

Marianela

Marianela, una muchacha pobre y sin educación que ha crecido en condiciones casi salvajes, marcadas por el desamparo y la pobreza, se enamora de Pablo, un joven ciego, atractivo e inteligente al que sirve de guía. A través de este amor contrariado, Benito Pérez Galdós defiende la importancia de la educación para evitar destinos tan desoladores, y denuncia males sociales de la España del siglo XIX: las duras condiciones en las minas, la mezquindad de la vida campesina y la hipocresía de la caridad convencional. Un clásico del realismo español.

About the Book

Marianela is a poor, uneducated young woman who has grown up in near-savage conditions, marked by neglect and poverty. She falls in love with Pablo, the blind, handsome, and intelligent young man she guides through the world. Through their thwarted romance, Benito Pérez Galdós explores the importance of education in preventing such desolate lives, while denouncing social ills of nineteenth-century Spain: brutal mining conditions, the meanness of rural existence, and the hypocrisy of conventional charity. A classic of Spanish realism.
